Restoration applauds Team Restoration, the organization’s first ever ING New York City Marathon team which successfully made their debut at the 42nd Annual New York City Marathon on Sunday, November 6th. The nine-person team represents a diverse group of athletes and professionals who have generously committed their personal financial support and fundraising efforts, not to mention hours of physical training in order to represent Restoration at this iconic New York City tradition. Race results are in and are as follows:

5:17:24 Drema Brown: Vice President of Education, Children’s Aid Society

5:03:53 Alisha Cowan-Viera: Director of Media Strategy and Content Development, American Values Initiative

It’s not too late to support the team which has so far raised nearly $30,000 toward their goal of $50,000. No contribution is too small and all support fuels Restoration’s comprehensive community development programming which helps catalyze self sufficiency, enhance family stability and promote education and the arts, collectively improving the quality of life for Central Brooklyn families.
